Highway in the Sky

on BBC One London

Written and directed by Archie P. Lee.

Have you heard about that swinging road,
The suspension bridge across the River Forth?
And the men who took that heavy load
To build the bridge that links us to the North. (Apprentices' Song)

For six years BBC cameras have recorded the labour of building the biggest suspension bridge in Europe, to be opened on September 4 by Her Majesty The Queen.
